After Urawa Red Diamonds were reversed 1-2 by Inter Milan, Urawa Red Diamonds coach Skoza attended the post-match press conference.

He said: "We have a pre-match plan, and while it may not be gorgeous, we did a good defensive job in the first half. We wanted to be more aggressive after scoring, we controlled most of the pace of the game, but we slipped in the second half, and the defense was not as good as the first half."

"The ball lost in stoppage time made us very uncomfortable, we lacked enough experience to avoid being 1-2, and we should have better control of the ball. But anyway, we played very high against a strong opponent. Our emotions were complicated, and now we were eliminated, but we would have fought for the first win for the last game."
